Duffy Electric Boat in Marina del Rey
I had an absolutely fantastic time on Curtis's little boat! Two hours at sea left me beyond happy. Curtis went above and beyond to ensure our trip was a success, even adjusting the time when the weather changed last minute. A true class act! Can't wait to set sail again soon - sea you soon ! pun/typo intended. Be back soon for sure!

Amazing Private Sailing Charter on 36' Sailboat in Marina del Rey with Captain
We took a 2hr sunset sail and smiled the entire time. We were just feeling great to know we nailed it with picking the perfect boat that was the right size and vibe which Matt should be credited for as he is a solid captain who lets you dictate how involved or not he was with our experience. Matt brought a few necessary items to make our trip plug and play (music, blankets to sit on at the bow, wine opener and glasses). Once the sails opened up and the music was on we were definitely on vacation at a reasonable cost for the amazing experience. We will be recommending and will be back! (Side note bringing sushi and wine was a win, we shared some with Matt once back in the marina and off the bow).
